HoBNob Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Fucking hell, you'd think after the problems Falkirk have had they'd be the last club to start digging out another for their fans. 3 hours ago, Grangemouth Bairn said: Did the police not run an anti-racism operation in EEP a few years ago to try and rid the club of that element that had attached themselves to Dunfermline ?? Aye, their was a racist incident so they club was very forthright about it and got it nipped in the bud, made it abundantly clear how unacceptable it was. It's absolutely inevitable that every football club will have idiots who follow it, the larger the following the more likely to have those idiots. What separates some clubs is how they deal with such incidents, some clubs like the old firm seem to encourage the idiots, others through inaction enable them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which makes it all the more puzzling that several fans including yourself have piled in here on various occasions. It's like you understand how it works, but can't help yourself, which is presumably just the football fan pettiness in all of us. The obvious exemption being the Arse cheek fans as you correctly mention, who live and breathe intolerance As you were then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d suggested the local police had tried to help your club deal with the racist element in your support. Agree with you regarding the Old Firm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the six on short term contracts get kept on then the signings should be. Back up goalkeeper. Two fullbacks. Midfielder in the box to box style with pace. Midfielder wide. Two forwards. That gives a minimum squad of 19 which is least required for this shortened season. All should be from their late teens to mid 20's they will be motivated to make sure they stay in the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iv turned over a new leaf, which will likely last no further than minute 1 of game 1. In all seriousness, I have no intention of rapping football, and I suspect this might just be the absence talking, but I do wonder how many people will return with a touch less passion and associated rage than before. I think this whole pandemic has done a bit of number perspective wise. It will probably wear off, but I think theres a different ambience on here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would be fine with someone beside him (not Sammon). He’s young and hungry to succeed I’d imagine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guarantees you 10 goals a season from midfield at this level something we certainly don't have at the moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
